A tiller is a device used to turn the rudder of a boat. The tiller is typically made of wood or fiberglass and is attached to the rudder head via a tiller arm or tiller extension. For instance, while sailing, a captain might use the tiller to steer the boat and navigate around obstacles or changing wind conditions.
